There's something funny > going on there. Yes. I tried the example on 7.0.2 (and 7.1) and could not get it to misbehave. I was guessing that it involves string->date conversion, which may pass through timestamp to get there, but it looks like there is an explicit text->date conversion function so time zone should just never be involved.
